problems compiling xmms-cdread
 

Hi, I am trying to get xmms to play cd's through by cdrom drive. I heard about the libcdread.so plugin which I got through the xmms-cdread-0.14a package (I thought). Last night I thought I compiled xmms-cdread correctly. But I was never able to "see" libcdread.so in the Options->Preferences->Audio I/O Plugins menu (or any other tab)in xmms, even though I could see it in the same folder with the rest of the input plugins (/usr/lib/xmms/Input). The rest of the plugins in that folder can be enabled through the xmms preferences menu, just not libcdread.so...

Today I tried to compile xmms-cdread again and got this:

255:/packages/xmms-cdread-0.14a # ./configure
loading cache ./config.cache
checking for a BSD compatible install... (cached) /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... (cached) yes
checking for working aclocal... found
checking for working autoconf... found

checking for prefix by checking for xmms... (cached) /usr/X11R6/bin/xmms
checking for directory /usr/X11R6/lib/xmms/Input... no
checking for directory /usr/X11R6/lib/xmms/Plugins... no
configure: error: *** No plugin directory found ***

Seems like the "X11R6" in the (2nd and 3rd to last lines) is messing things up. Can someone please help me out? I'm a noobie, so I'm not sure how to fix this part or get xmms to see the libcdread.so plugin that is in the input folder:

Thanks for your time. Any help is much appreciated.
